If you’ve been following me for a while, you KNOW I’m a huge believer in still LIVING and ENJOYING your life while losing weight.

Here’s why I am so passionate about still enjoying your favorite foods and drinks and losing weight...

If you don’t learn the SKILLS to enjoy your favorite foods and drinks in moderation, you will ALWAYS fail on your journey to health, and you’ll end up gaining the weight back (and usually more!)

So... my secret to enjoying a brownie and still losing weight?! It has 3 parts:

1. BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF! What foods and drinks are your absolute favorites?! If you’re honest with yourself, you will have a FEW... Not 20

2. PLAN AHEAD! I can’t stress the importance of this step enough. Plan ahead and decide exactly when you’re going to enjoy your fav non-nutritious foods, and it will be 10x easier to execute. If you never plan ahead, you’ll rely on your motivation to always say NO... which never lasts.

3. WATCH YOUR PORTION! See that massive brownie in the pic... I cut it into thirds and enjoy it on 3 separate occasions. Planning ahead to enjoy a non-nutritious treat doesn’t mean you need to order the largest size possible. Be mindful of your portions when you DO plan ahead to enjoy!

What is ONE of your favorite foods that you can PLAN on enjoying (in a SMALL PORTION) this week?
